6 months to go

So it's been a while since I've posted something on here. With good reason. Basically yesterday was 6 months to the day until I get back on stage. Frankly I don't think it's very interesting to update this even weekly when a lot of my goals right now are to just maintain my current weight and slowly lose some body fat. Contest diets are interesting like that, you really don't have to go all out until maybe 12 to 16 weeks before the competition. So right now, I'm counting calories, working out hard and doing a little cardio. I'm still enjoying a drink or two, eating bread and the occasional cheat food.

The good news is that I'm currently at 181 lbs and my body fat is starting to get low. The clothes are looser, the veins in my arms and lower abs are starting to become more pronounced and my face is getting thinner. I'm starting to cycle my carbs just a little bit on a two week high one week low type of schedule. Nothing too difficult yet, but time is ticking.
